This is a pattern that has been around for a long time. It was one of the first patterns I designed! It’s been knit and loved by many of my students and the Cabled Cowl Class has been a staple in my schedules for years.

It’s so quick and so simple and so great for beginners that it’s comes back again and again. It makes a great gift. It’s a great intro to cables. It’s FAST.

It’s also a great project for a skein of bulky or heavy worsted handspun. If you’ve got one skein of handspun that you don’t know what to do with, this project is for you.
